Funny Images from Around the Internet (November 28, 2008)


1. Bad Hair Day - Some days there just isn't a thing you can do with your hair. I'm sure we've all experienced this to some degree in the last 10 days; and we all have our own way of dealing with it.

As for myself, I chose to do nothing about it. When I feel like this sheep, I embrace the chaos, then move past it.





2. Not Real. But seriously, how awesome would it be to have EVERYTHING taste a little bit like strawberries. Imagine: Hot Coco, Cold Cereal, Chicken Salad, the list goes on...



3. Real. and Sick.



4. Cool costume. A little bit morbid, but cool. The only materials you need to make this mousey creation is a couple of brown grocery bags, some fur from the fabric store, wrapping paper tubes, tin foil, some construction paper, scissors and glue!



5. Kids love to dance - It doesn't matter who their partner is. Now that I've been away from ballroom dance for almost 2 years, I feel like I can say, without prejudice, that my favorite form of dance is folk dance! It has the best parts of both ballroom and hip-hop. It takes the emotional connection a couple experiences through partner dance while including the upbeat, social aspect of hip-hop.

    I had no idea you were a folk dancer! I have to admit, I took a few classes myself, and I'm a big fan, too.

    I LIVED for Folk Dance at BYU- it filled me with energy and at the same time exhausted me! I also love that last sculpture!! :)

    1. Noelle when she goes to bed with wet hair and wakes up in the morning looking like this.

    3. Stefanie. Sorry you lucked out with the geo tongue gene.

    4. Bryan--I can totally see you making a costume like this.

    5. Shannon, maybe it's just the age...she's getting such a personality these days though...

Rummi-"CUB" vs. Rummi-"CUBE"

The "Rummikub" Pronunciation Debate Affirmative Constructive: "Cub" For years, I have been a firm advocate and defender of the pronunciation, Rummi-"CUB".  The game box I grew up with spelled it, Rummicub  on the box. However, other productions of the game have variant spellings: Rummykub , Rummy Kube , Rummy Tiles , etc.  Based solely on box spelling, the game's true pronunciation is open to interpretation. Therefore, Rummi"cub" is equally acceptable to any other given pronunciation. Negative  Constructive : "Cube" My opponents argue that since the game originated over seas, we ought to respect and maintain its original pronunciation. Affirmative Rebuttal: Americanization of the Term When the game was brought to America and given Americanized rules, its name was also Americanized. Pronunciation loyalists then counter my rebuttal with, "there are lots of adopted foreign words that have retained their original pron...

Who's Got The Funk?

I am an amateur guitarist, and I've got no funk. My musical skills seem to lacking that special something . Great musicians have it . Those fortunate enough to have gotten hold of  it , create timeless hits. While musicians without it  fade into oblivion. After spending hours searching through Blues history websites and 1970's band documentaries online, I discovered what that special something  is thank to a (70% Man, 30% fish) character from the BBC show "The Mighty Boosh" named Old Gregg. He identified that  thing  as  The Funk ! But what exactly is The Funk ? Here is some dialogue from the show to help explain its origin and purpose: Old Gregg: You're a musician, yeah? Howard: Yes I am. Old Gregg: Butchya ain't very good, are ya? Howard: I'm one of the best in town. Old Gregg: Come on, I read your reviews. Hmm? You know what your problem is? Howard: What? Old Gregg: Ya ain't got the funk. You're all rigid. Hmm? You're l...

The Hit Single *Bang!* by AJR is about Suicide

Introduction I listened to the lyrics to the AJR song,  BANG!  for the first time today and immediately noticed its connection to suicide. Curious why this wasn't obvious to more people, I googled it and discovered that I may be  one of the few people who think this way. I'm not crazy, right? Pexels.com Song Analysis Listen to the chorus: "Everybody come hang (come hang). Let's go out with a bang. Bang! Bang! Bang!" These repeated words brought to my mind a couple of terrifying statistics:  Suicide is the SECOND leading cause of death for college-age youth and youth ages 12-18 ( CDC WISQARS ) The two leading methods of suicide (in high-income countries) are hanging and firearms ( The Parent Resource Program ). As I continued to examine the song lyrics, I realized EVERYTHING about the song supported my interpretation. This radio hit doesn't necessarily glorify suicide. It's more of a social commentary on the frustrating plight of American youngsters. It ...
